With a past she knows nothing about and no family of her own, she yearns to find a place that can be home.Melanie -- the rock star's daughter who has everything money can buy except the love she craves. A daddy's girl caught in a whirl of damaging relationships, testing those closest to her. In one man, she sees the chance to change her life for ever, but at what price?Three girls in search of a missing piece of their lives; three girls who will change their worlds to find it.
